RE: [T3] Exhaust Manifold

["Erkson, Toby" <toby.erkson@intel.com>]

Yes, the wrap does work as it keeps the heat within its boundary.  It also
isn't waterproof, thus water can get between the wrap and tubing.  This has
the detrimental effect of rapid oxidation, particularly where the tubing
bends, thus shortening the life of the exhaust header.

Just something to keep in mind.
